Barrick Gold's CEO helped strike a Nevada deal with Newmont. Now the self-described “consultative dictator” needs to ensure its success

The two miners had long sought a partnership, but couldn’t agree to terms. “What is amazing is that we were able to convince everyone that this was a good idea,” Mr. Bristow said of the Nevada partnership.
